Background

This guitar is a continuation of the Cort MBC-1 and is produced in association with Cort, but is produced under the Manson trademark. In terms of pricing and specifications, it is almost identical to the Cort MBC-1, with the only difference being the pickups, which have been slightly updated and now feature two humbuckers instead of a humbucker-single coil combination. This also makes it similar to the Manson Matt Black 3.0.

The guitar was announced on January 12th 2020, with social media posts by Manson Guitars and Matt Bellamy. It was unveiled to the public for the first time a week later at the Winter NAMM Show 2020.

It is available in both Satin (Matte) Black and Starlight Silver (Matte-like Silver).

Upgrade options

Manson Guitar Works offer the additional Sustainer install, replacing the neck pickup. As with the Cort MBC-1, more modification options are presumably going to be available in the future.
